Jesus is the reason...

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for the gift of life, the gift of grace, the gift of
love, the gift of Jesus.

I ask that You touch every precious heart reading this today;
that You fill every empty ache with comfort, healing and hope; that You shine
Your light in their darkness, and illuminate their homes and families with Joy
Divine.

Give them peace in the chaos, strength when they are weak, words
of life when harshness threatens to rule their tongue, kindness and mercy where
needed, rest in their slumber.

Surround their homes with Your welcoming presence and let all
who pass their doorstep feel Your Spirit embracing them.

Keep them safe as they travel, clear headed in the hustle and
bustle, and free to let go of the unimportant.

But most of all Lord God, impart the fragrance of Jesus upon
their thoughts and plans through this season of Holy celebration so that He
stands in glory at the centre of it all.

Thank you, Jenny, for sharing 2015 with all of us. I truly enjoy reading about your adventures and traveling around Australia! I look forward to your blog posts and miss them when you are on a break! From Gainesville Fl USA

Dear Jenny,As 2015 comes to an end, I want to thank you for a year of wonderful blogs. I don't do much embroidery, but I have appreciated your creativity and the beauty of your projects. Each week, I especially look forward to Sunday, and the words of wisdom that you share. I love your openness, your vulnerability and your desire to grow in your relationship with Jesus. I wish you and Mr. E a blessed Christmas and a grace-filled 2016.Blessings,Maureen

What a beautiful prayer Jenny. Thank you - I receive it with gratefulness and may the blessings of it be reflected back to you and your precious family too. Have a wonderful Christmas season and may the Joy of the Lord fill your heart throughout 2016. With Love.

Amen - beautiful. I am reading this just as we are about to head off to Christmas Eve service, so wonderful words to head to church with. Thank you and blessings for a lovely Christmas season for you and your family.

It's always nice to receive feedback on a blog post, so *thank you* for taking time to comment!I will try to reply via email unless you are a 'no reply blogger' which means you'll have to check for my reply in the comments. Of course, life is a rather hazardous activity, isn't it? So if I don't respond to your comment that's the reason why - life simply stepped in...hugsJennyx
